2. Being a humanitarian charity involves being ready and
there to assist others who may be victims of the various
humanitarian crisis. During any crisis such as earth
quakes, hunger or even war, the humanitarians are
always called upon to step in assist the needy with the
necessary assistance they may need. This article
highlights on some of the procedures one needs to
follow before becoming one.
3. The first thing to consider is getting the necessary
education. Most people think that humanitarians just
involve helping those who are in need and so there is no
education required. In order to operate effectively, it is
important for people to understand that there are
essential educations which individuals need to take.
4. This education will make an individual to be a respecter
of human rights and also to be an advocator of them
most humanitarians are advocators of human right and
one cannot advocate for what they do not understand.
The education is therefore important as the first step
towards
5. The other thing to consider is settling down on the area
of humanitarian to work on. Humanitarianism includes a
wide area of services which one cannot handle single
handily. It is therefore important and necessary that you
consider you are of interest then you start working on it
to make it perfect.
6. Social responsibility is also worth considering. The
humanitarians look at the social plight of human being.
The individual should therefore be one who is socially
responsible and is able to take good care of others.
Social responsibility is what will enable the individual to
feel that they have an obligation to act in a manner
which is beneficial to the whole society. Therefore social
responsibility is one of the core foundations to
humanitarianism.
7. In order to effectively give humanitarian services, you
should join an existing organization or even start one
your own. This is because an organization can receive
funding from various donors to help in the works which
you are doing. Some of the funding you cannot get as an
individual but you can easily get under the umbrella of
humanitarian organization.
8. The importance of working with an organization is to
enable one to get funding from the various donors in
order to promote their humanitarian aids. People
cannot be funded at individual level but the funding is
given under an organization. Therefore partnering with
the nongovernmental organizations or even starting one
of your own will help you to promote the
humanitarianism act you in order to give to the needy.
9. Getting the necessary skills is also necessary and equally
important for an individual aspiring to be an
humanitarian. One can acquire the skills by reading
necessary publications by United Nations and other
authors who have written on various topics under
humanitarianism. These are some of the ways towards
being a humanitarian charity.
